ISrrCIAL TELEGKAK TO TUB DISFATCH.1
Toledo, October 9. To-day was the time
for opening bids lor Toledo's issue of f675,
000 worth of natural gas bonds. At 7
o'plock the Committee on "Ways and Means
ot the Common Council met and received no
bids for the bonds, except a bid of some
local subscribers, who raised $100,000,
chiefly among interested parties, to tak6
that much of the issue. "After a hot discus
sion the award was made, but there will be
no delivery until boards of the Common
Council have endorsed the action of the
committee. .
The proposed city pipe line cannot be
built this winter, as outside capitalists ap
pear to be afraid of the bonds and the 100,
000 is needed to pay outstanding obligations
mid to protect the city's gas territory. The
bnnd have been advertised twice, and now tho
S573.000 will have to be readvertised. The S100,
000 ruiid was raised larcely from people inter
ested in the scheme. The cause of the failure
to receive bids is attributed to themachinations
of the Standard Oil Company.

Jndigestion
IS not only a distressing complaint, of
itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Averts Sarsaparilla
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated vrfthLiver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of BrockwUj
Centre, Mich.:
"Liver complaint and indigestion
made my life a burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years I suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about All
kinds -of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
nil. ' 'Within the time mentioned several
Shysicians treated me without giving re
ef. Nothing that I took seemed to do
any permanent good until I commenced
the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing to take the Sarsapa
rilla I could see an improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
und with it came the ability to digest
all the foodtaken, my strength im
proved each day, and after a few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, I found myself a well
woman, able to attend to all household
duties. The medicine has given me a
new lease of life."
